S4M vs. Stripe S600
• While the S600 printer
is made entirely of
plastic, the S4M
printer is more robust
containing a metal
frame and case ideally
suited for many
applications, including
product ID, receiving,
shipping, and
compliance labeling.
• The S4M printer offers
a larger selection of
connectivity options
than the S600,
including internal
Ethernet and wireless.
• The S4M printer has a
similar duty cycle to
the S600, but much
higher than that of a
LP/TLP 2844. The
S4M is the ideal
printer for applications
that need more than a
desktop, yet don’t
need the horsepower
of a Z4Mplus.
• The footprint of the
S4M printer is small
enough to be a good
fit for certain space
constrained
environments such as
mobile carts.
• The S4M printer offers
faster throughput than
the S600, making it
comparable to other
modern Thermal
Printers in its price
class.
